On the basis of research laboratories in the Physics Department in 1971 created the Research Institute of Applied Physical Problems, headed by Academician A.N.Sevchenko. In 1976, on the basis of 4 departments of the Faculty of Physics offers Radiophysics and electronics. Somewhat later called the Institute of Nuclear Problems, headed by professor of nuclear physics V.G.Baryshevsky.

The pride of the faculty - its graduates. Among the famous graduate, first of all should be called the Hero of Socialist Labor, Laureate of the Lenin and State Prizes of the USSR Academy of Sciences Academician LA Artsimovich, Hero of Socialist Labor, Laureate of the Lenin and State Prizes of the USSR Academy of Sciences Academician N.A.Borisevicha, Hero of Socialist Labor, laureate of State Prize, academician of the Academy of Sciences of Belarus, the honored worker of science of Belarus F.I.Fedorova, Hero of Socialist Labor, academician of the Academy of Sciences of Belarus, honored scientist of Belarus A.N.Sevchenko.
